What should I do immediately after water damage occurs?

If possible: stop the water source, turn off electricity in affected areas if safe, move valuables away from standing water, and contact a professional restoration company immediately.

How fast can mold grow after water damage?

Mold may begin developing within 24 to 48 hours when moisture remains present.

Can wet drywall be saved?

Sometimes. Salvageability depends on the amount of water, contamination level, drying time, and moisture readings.

Can hardwood floors be saved after water damage?

In many cases yes, if drying begins quickly and the flooring has not suffered extensive damage or mold growth.

Do you provide structural drying?

Yes. We use professional air movers, dehumidifiers, floor drying systems, Injectidry systems, moisture mapping, and thermal imaging equipment.

What equipment do you use?

We use HVE3000 Water Extractors, Phoenix AirMax Air Movers, Dri-Eaz Dehumidifiers, FLIR Thermal Imaging Cameras, Protimeter MMS3 Moisture Meters, HEPA Air Filtration Devices, Floor Drying Systems, and Injectidry Drying Systems.

How do you find hidden leaks?

We use moisture meters, thermal imaging cameras, moisture mapping techniques, and detailed inspections.

What is moisture mapping?

Moisture mapping is the process of identifying and documenting hidden moisture throughout a property to determine the extent of water damage.

Can thermal imaging see through walls?

No. Thermal imaging detects temperature differences that may indicate hidden moisture. Moisture readings are used to verify findings.

Does homeowners insurance cover water damage?

Coverage depends on the cause of loss and policy terms. Sudden and accidental water damage is often covered, while long-term maintenance issues may not be.

Do you help with insurance claims?

Yes. We provide documentation, moisture readings, photos, and restoration reports to assist property owners and adjusters.

We had been going through a nightmare because our house smelled so bad, and no matter what we checked, we couldn’t find the source of the problem. Masterpros came out and was able to identify an issue with an old cast-iron pipe that was causing hidden moisture and mold. Their team handled the mold remediation professionally and helped us restore our beautiful Miami home back to like-new condition. We’re extremely grateful for their knowledge, attention to detail, and help throughout the entire process. Thank you, Masterpros! Highly recommended!

Service provided was fantastic and at a fair price. Dealing with mold and water damage is very stressful and they were more than patient with all of our needs, concerns and questions. They were also very responsive throughout the process. I feel fortunate to have found and chosen them for my issue and I'll definitely be recommending them to others.
